But you don’t need to spend much to get in the autumnal mood — a few clever swaps can transform your space.
THROW IT ON: Nothing says autumn like snuggling under a blanket. Swap lightweight throws for chunky knits or faux-fur textures. Drape them over sofas, beds or even chairs for an instant cosy look.
TOP TIP: Changing your cushions is a fast way to refresh a room. Go for autumn shades like burnt orange or mustard and look for different textures to add a warm feeling.
One great viral home hack is to stuff old jumpers with your cushion inserts and tie the sleeves at the back.

GO FOR GLOW: Flickering candles make evenings feel instantly snug. Stock up on spiced apple, pumpkin or vanilla-scented candles.
You could even cluster a few together on a mantelpiece or coffee table to create a cosy centrepiece that will smell as good as it looks.
For a designer feel, pick up a pumpkin candle at Wilko for a bargain £2.99.
CREATE A NATURAL LOOK: Forget flowers, in autumn you can bring the outdoors in with branches arranged in vases.
Add them to the corners of your room. The clusters will make a striking focal point without costing a penny.
TRY A RUG REFRESH: Layering rugs adds warmth as the cooler nights draw in, especially if you have a hard floor.
Choose fabric or faux-fur rugs for texture and for a soft feeling underfoot. The rug range at Ikea starts at £10 for a 120x180cm flatwoven rug.
LIGHT UP: Now is the time to start draping fairy lights around your living room and bedroom for cosy evenings.
Check out the new autumn collection at Dunelm, where you can find 100 LED cluster string lights for £4 with copper or gold-coloured wire.
Try arranging them around a mirror to reflect the glow around the room.
